My Biggest Takeaway from NC State’s Bioprocessing Course
Hands-on immersion has become a defining advantage in modern biomanufacturing, and programs like NC State’s BTEC exemplify why experiential learning matters as much as technical knowledge. By stepping through a full upstream and downstream bioprocess in a simulated environment, the Benchmark team gained firsthand insight into the real-world pressures, decisions, and constraints their customers face on the production floor. That kind of perspective doesn’t just sharpen product expertise—it builds credibility, empathy, and the ability to support bioprocessing operations with solutions that actually fit how work gets done.
